Antibacterial Activity of Aureobasidium Pullulans

Aureobasidium pullulans is ubiquitous, polymorphic and black fungus producing a variety of important metabolites including enzymes, polysaccharides and single cell protein. It is considered as a probable source for antagonistic activity against a number of phytopathogenic fungi and possible biocontrol agent of post harvest diseases. The present work aims at the antibacterial compounds produced ...

Genetic transformation of Aureobasidium pullulans.

Aureobasidium pullulans strain Y117 was transformed to hygromycin resistance using plasmid pDH33, which contains the bacterial hygromycin B phosphotransferase gene (hph) fused to promoter elements of the Aspergillus niger glucoamylase gene (glaA). Southern hybridizations of transformants revealed multiple, integrated copies of the vector. The glaA promoter was not induced by starch in A. pullul...

Redefinition of Aureobasidium pullulans and its varieties

Using media with low water activity, a large numbers of aureobasidium-like black yeasts were isolated from glacial and subglacial ice of three polythermal glaciers from the coastal Arctic environment of Kongsfjorden (Svalbard, Spitsbergen), as well as from adjacent sea water, sea ice and glacial meltwaters. To characterise the genetic variability of Aureobasidium pullulans strains originating f...
